THE PERFORMANCE OF INTERNATIONAL COURTS AND TRIBUNALS

Abstract

The Performance of International Courts is a book edited by Theresa Squatrito, Oran Young, Geir Ulfstein, and Andreas Follesdal, and published by Cambridge University Press. These last decades, there have been an expansion of international courts and tribunals and an apparent variation in their performance. The contributors to this book raise several questions regarding how to conceptualize and measure international courts’ performance, what explains variation in their performance, and whether there are ways to improve their performance.
